As to the question, yes, absolutely. In fact, the Speed power specifically says that on a raise the character can Run as a free action. So they can definitely still run as a normal action without the raise.

Oh, but you still wouldn't break the 1890 100m run record. The earliest recorded time was 12 seconds in 1896 (unofficial). You'd need Fleet-Footed and Speed to pull off 100m in two rounds. _________________Clint Black
